The Superman:Man of Steel sequel is still buzzing. The film, which will feature Batman and Superman on the same screen for the first time, is reportedly set to be filmed in Toronto, according to a report by VanCityBuzz.

Man of Steel 2 was originally pegged to film in Vancouver, but it has since been relocated to Toronto for tax reasons. Though a good portion of Man of Steel was filmed in Vancouver, favorable film tax credits in Ontario were too good to pass up, according to VanCityBuzz.

Man of Steel 2, also being dubbed Superman vs. Batman, "would be the first film to have the fan favourite superheroes appear on the big-screen together, director Zack Snyder said. "Let's face it, it's beyond mythological to have Superman and our new Batman facing off, since they are the greatest superheroes in the world."

Man of Steel 2 is scheduled for release in summer 2015. Find out more about the film in our earlier post here.
